What would Henry VIII, Elizabeth 1st, or Richard III be like if they lived today? Questions like these inspire Olivia Hayfield's modern-day retellings of historical tales. Following her Tudor-inspired best-sellers Wife After Wife (2020) and Sister to Sister (2021), Olivia's third historical retelling, Notorious, was released in 2022. It's a whodunnit based on England's most enduring historical mystery – what happened to the Princes in the Tower? Olivia is in fact like her characters – a reimagined version of the truth. Olivia Hayfield is the pseudonym of author and editor Sue Copsey. Olivia is more glamorous and fair bit younger than children's writer Sue, and her behaviour is far worse. Sue has two children and a husband; Olivia probably has lovers and a pedigree cat. Olivia spends most of her time in London, while Sue is usually in Auckland, New Zealand.
